[PATCH] scripts: Fallback to KBUILD_OUTPUT if O is not specified

[Thierry Reding]

From: Thierry Reding <treding@xxxxxxxxxx>

The KBUILD_OUTPUT environment can be used to set the build directory as
an alternative to passing the O variable on the command-line. This works
with regular kernel builds, so it's surprising if it doesn't work within
the tools/scripts directory.

Allow KBUILD_OUTPUT if O is not specified on the command-line to avoid
any surprises.

Hi Arnaldo,

I'm not sure if you're the right person to send this to. There was noone
reported by scripts/get_maintainer.pl, but it looks like you ended up
applying most of the patches to this file lately, which kinda makes you
the de facto maintainer =).

Thierry
